The Feather Touch Micro Focuser a little difficult to install onto the Celestron 1100 Edge HD Optical Tube, Instructions made for a CPC so I was not sure I was doing it correct. Does not show exchange of washer. First time I made mistake of not using wrench to hold while screwing on it. Finally on the 13th May weathered cleared to test it out at night. The focuser worked great once I turned it back alolt. The Full Moon was rising so I focused first on it and later on Jupiter and about 20 bright Messier Objects.Next will be focusing with my cameras, a Canon EOS 60D and SBIG ST8300M FW5. John Laning

The factory focuser is not very precise and takes more time than it should to focus objects. This is most prominent for me when viewing the moon and Jupiter. Swapping out color lenses and having to refocus the viewfinder was a little more involved than it needed to be. With the FeatherTouch in place, I can quickly refocus and obtain a much clearer image than I could with the standard focuser. The fine adjustment at 10:1 is smooth and easy to make minor corrections without overcorrecting and losing focus.
